CLT-L29. Phone updated to android 10 a few weeks ago. I was playing around changing the layouts on my screens when I decided I wanted a different screen as my default home screen. Went through the usual steps. Did the screen pinch or push and hold on a blank spot on the screen to get to the screen menu. At the top of the current home screen is a little home icon. I want to set a different screen as the default home screen but everything I've tried will not move the little home icon to the top of another screen. I can't find any option in any menu that allows me to select a different screen as the default home screen.
Was it ever possible in EMUI?..
You can drag the screen you want to be "home" all the way to the left.
Nope. I currently have 3 screens. With home screen loop turned off, the screen I want as the default home screen is already on the left. The middle screen is the home screen and moving them around doesn't change that the current default home screen still has the little home icon at the top of it when in screen editor mode. None of the other screens have the little icon and I can't move it to a different screen.
There has to be an easy way to select a specific screen as the default home screen without moving the order of the screens around. Worst case is that I'm going to have to move everything off the current home screen and move all the icons, widgets and folders that I want, back onto it.
I'm sure the option was available for version 9 but I can't remember now. Everything I wanted was on the default home screen.
Yes I'm having exactly the same problem. After the latest update it changed my home screen and there's no option to swap it, can only swap all apps and widgets onto the screen with home icon. Bit annoying that.

Question. I seem to have lost my home screen on touchwiz.now when I double click home it slides to the last page of however many pages I've set up no matter if I then shuffle them around each other. Additionally, in edit mode none of my home screen pages show a house icon, specifying home screen, ie the one touch wiz defaults to with home screen double click. anyone know how to restore a touchwiz home page?
There's no way to restore any screens once they get deleted on touchwiz . Sorry
Sent from my fonez so excuze the speling erors
just to be clear i'm not trying to restore a home screen that i've organized widgets and links with.. i'm just trying to reset one of the homescreens to the home one with a home icon. If you edit your homescreens you'll find that one of your screens has a house icon on it and thats the one touchwiz will swing to when you double click the home button.
Anyone?
you found one of the odities of the Touchwiz home screens. If you have less then 5 ( i think) the one on the end becomes your home and you can't change it. If you have 5 or more you can move them around to make the middle one home.
TouchWiz uses pane 4, or the highest number to it as Home. I've never found a way to change this. (aka 3 if you have 3...)
I too had this problem. The only way I found was to leave it on the 7 screen configuration, and just leave the end screens blank.
Hmmm. I seem to have stumbled into this as well. I didn't think it would be possible, but I deleted an empty page and now don't seem to be able to create a new one (now that I have more crap I want to load on one).
yes thats one of the bugs in touchwiz I think. Unless you have 7 screens; the rightmost screen becomes your Home screen. I tried looking for a solution for long time and no go yet. Lets wait for froyo update and may be a new touchwiz! btw you can always install launcher pro or ADWLauncher. But I think touchWiz is more sophisticated that those two.
There is a free app in the market, called SGS Screen Changer that let's you set the default screen when you use the Home Button (needs root and Busybox to work).
Good luck!
hello everybody, i wanted to know if we can mod the home button press for default home screen on our note. like it should go to middle one meaning screen no. 4 rather than one so cause it looks awkward for wallpapers to set home at the corner of them, i know how to change the default screen but it will always be numbered on 1st position. i hope somebody works with this so that we can have a bit extra thanks
you have to use third party launcher for that.
HI guys,
Is there anyway to change the default home screen on TW for the note? I really like TW, I have my main home screen at position 1 and then I have no2 and then I have the last page. The idea is that I start from my home screen and can go left or right (like Nova etc).
Now this does indeed work with TW but if you have a live wallpaper and scroll from first page to last page (in this case left) then the wallpaper does a funny jump to shift the image instead of a smooth scroll from one page to the next.
Is there anyway to set the home page to another page in TW? Or is there anyway to stop live wallpaper scrolling (if it is not an option on the LW settings).
Thanks!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Just hit the home button on the top right, and once selected, every time you hit the physical home key, you’ll be taken to that screen

Ummm I don't understand, hit the home button on the top right?
If i pinch the screen or select Options>Edit I don't see anyway I can define the home screen linked to the physical home key
Is it just me or does the home button not allways take you back to the homescreen?
I have found that for some reason when coming out of an app etc and pressing home it takes me back to the app draw and not directly to my pre defined home screen. It basically does what the back screen should (if it were working half the time!)
I cant see any possible logic for it to do this...the home button should take you back to blink feed or the home screen you have set as your 'home screen'
Anyone else have this or think it strange or give me some logical reason why it does it
thanks
That's how sense 5 works.
It treats the App drawer as another home screen. Press home again, and you'll go back to the home screen.
It was a conscious decision by HTC to do it that way...
and yes, i also find it annoying.
Seems that once you turn briefings off you can no longer put a blank screen to the far left. Anyone had success on this?
You can't directly add one, but you can add a blank screen on the right side and drag it all the way to the left. It's not perfect, but it works.
Hold down on a blank spot on screen. Switch to a different panel and there is a home button on each panel. Press it until it lights up. Now that will set your main home screen and rearrange your icons etc and you can have panels to the left of your main homepage.
